Mezwho runs floodbotit1?13:18
no0ticMez, thanks ;)13:19
Mezno0tic, I presume the ubuntu-it owners know13:19
Mezno0tic, also - what is the issue13:19
no0ticMez, I presume they don't :)13:20
no0ticMez, it keeps -J'ing13:20
no0ticMez, and it was accidentally kicked from #ubuntu-it-ops (monitor channel)13:21
Mezthat'll be why it's doing it...13:21
MezThe only way to fix it is to either get the person who runs it to restart, or a staffer to /kill it13:22
MezGary / nalioth any chance you can do the honors?13:22
elkbuntuthey can also +b it13:27
Mezelkbuntu, ban it?13:28
elkbuntuyes.13:29
Mezelkbuntu, why?13:29
elkbuntuit'd stop the flooing13:29
Mezyes, but when the bot's fixed, it'd cause issues13:29
elkbuntudepends if stopping the flooding is more important than waiting an extra while for an unban13:31
elkbuntualternatively, banforward it to the monitor channel13:32
no0ticelkbuntu, and then kick it?13:32
elkbuntuit'll stop the flood and will not be as big an inconvenience as the ban can be removed right away13:32
no0ticfilo1234, are you reading?13:32
filo1234no0tic: wait i'm in-ops with Mez13:33
elkbuntuno0tic, no, leave it in the monitor channel, unless you dont want it there?13:34
no0ticelkbuntu, it is not in the monitor channel now, someone kicked it (I don't know who was, as I'm not an italian op anymore..)13:35
elkbuntuare there no operators around at all?13:35
filo1234elkbuntu:  sometimes we kick fb in -ops13:35
filo1234elkbuntu:  i'm an italian op13:36
elkbuntufilo1234, banforward the bot to the monitoring channel from the channel it's spamming, it should stop the problem13:37
elkbuntuor at least, move the spamming to a less populated area13:39
Mezelkbuntu, it's modespamming13:42
Mezbecause it keeps flicking in/out of emergency mode13:42
no0ticMez, if kicked it rejoins automagically?13:43
Mezno0tic, no, it doesnt...13:43
elkbunturight, and wouldnt it be better to do that to $population_of_ops rather than $population_of_public_channel13:43
Mezfor now, I've removed it from the channel, so it'll sit in langour until someone kicks it. That's all that can be done13:49
no0ticbye, thanks13:52
filo1234Mez:  but if sometimes we don' t want fb in -ops we can to make something?13:54
Mezwhy would you not want it in there?13:56
elkbuntufilo1234, make a #ubuntu-it-bots or #ubuntu-it-monitor channel then13:56
filo1234Mez:  because speaking always :)13:57
Mezfilo1234, ask for it to be put in a different monitor channel then.13:57
MezAnd the fact its dangerous to have it in there, as anyone can play with it ... which isn't a good thing13:57
filo1234Mez: but in -ops fb dont' t stop flood send only message from -it13:59
filo1234so about her status or about nick muted13:59
Mezfilo1234, indeed... thats because it's had that channel set as the monitor channel14:00
Mez(see #ubuntu-ops-monitor)14:00
filo1234Mez:  so have some guide for know better fb functions?14:00
Mezno, it's not documented... you need to speak to ljl and get him to sort you our.14:01
filo1234ok14:01
elkbuntuemailing is probably the best way to get ljl, he's not responsive in irc these days14:01
filo1234is in holiday :)14:02
elkbuntui think just distracted by that real life thing14:03
